RADDATZ (on camera): You walk these streets, you talk to people, and the pain is everywhere. And so I think that, if we're going to look at the X factor of the economy for President Biden heading into 2024, I think he's potentially in a better position than Democrats were in the midterms, and ultimately the economy did not factor into the midterms as much as we thought it was going to.

And, of course, we had the president, a very small number of his team, including myself, and then a strong component of security. He shared an article about the Hulu series Power Trip. That's when she just did, she beclowned herself for one thing. She seemed quite animated to talk about what was occurring behind closed door. Why? They know that.".
